The main thing that bothers millions of people is the crazy amount of money that was spent on Obama’s Inauguration.

At one point it was reported that “average” amount spent on prior inaugurations was $40 – $50 million.  Obama spent $150 million.

Few people attempt to defend this, saying that it was a “Historical Event” because he is the “first black President.”  Others do not care if he’s the first black President, the first woman President, or the first Latino President, $150 million is entirely too much, especially considering the state that our Economy is presently in.

Imagine what $100+ million dollars could have done for our Economy.  It definitely could assist the “boost” they so claim we will soon receive.

One word definitely comes to many peoples minds regarding the Inauguration, “Selfish.”  What happened to “Distribute the Wealth”? It obviously does not apply to ones in Office or Congress.
